Dreifaltigkeitsgasse

The majority of the population was German and Jewish. In terms of the distribution of economic sectors, this street represented a typical cross-section of urban occupations. In 1936, 644 families lived on the street, 30 per cent of the residents were employed in the public sector, had office jobs and had university degrees, 26 per cent were merchants or shopkeepers (e.g. grocers), and 25 per cent were craftsmen or had other occupations. The poet Rose Ausländer lived in Strada Sfânta Treimi no. 20 after her return from the USA in the 1930s. This house became part of the ghetto after 11 October 1941.
